The current myki contract expires in June 2016 with an option to extend it for a further six months at the state's discretion. Public Transport Victoria (PTV) has commenced planning the myki retender to ensure the system continues to operate beyond the current contract. Effective procurement planning is important to ensure that previous issues impacting on myki's implementation and performance do not recur.
